No mystery blends
What is actually in it, and what each part does
Sodium Lauroyl SarcosinateAn amino-acid derived surfactant. It does the cleaning without the squeaky, stripped finish.
Sodium C14-16 Olefin SulfonateThe deeper-cleansing surfactant. This is the one that shifts a full day of oil and sunscreen.
NiacinamideWorks on oil balance and the look of pores over weeks. Not overnight.
Gluconolactonea PHAA gentler acid than glycolic. Loosens dead surface skin without the sting.
Zinc PCAHelps keep oil in check through the day.
Panthenol, Allantoin and Saccharide IsomerateThe comfort side of the formula, so a cleanser that works does not leave skin tight.
Morning and night
How to use it
Thirty seconds is the whole job. Longer is not better.
- Wet your faceLukewarm water, not hot. Hot water strips more than any cleanser does.
- Two pumps, thirty secondsWork it over damp skin and give it half a minute to actually do something.
- Rinse and pat dryPat, do not drag a towel across your face.
- Carry on with the routineCleansing is step one, not the whole routine. Sunscreen in the morning, always.
What to expect, honestly
A cleanser is a supporting act. Here is a realistic timeline.
Week 1Skin feels properly clean without the tight, squeaky finish.
Week 3Less midday shine. Fewer new congestion spots.
Week 6Pores look less obvious. This is the slow part, and it needs the rest of your routine too.
Straight talk
Who this is for, and who it is not
We would rather you buy the other one than be disappointed by this one.
Reach for it if
- Your skin is oily or combination and shiny by midday
- You wear sunscreen daily and want it properly removed
- You break out around the nose, chin and jaw
- You want one cleanser, not a double-cleanse ritual
Give it a miss if
- Your skin feels tight even before you cleanse - Bare Minimum is the one you want
- You have active eczema or a compromised barrier
- You need heavy makeup gone in a single pass
- You expect a face wash to clear acne on its own
